Many people in the UK cannot get GP appointments and this is increasing pressure on A&E

However many Doctors cannot get work in GP surgeries due to current funding restrictions

Make it make sense

Well that's very odd, I had my account suspended for breaking the guidelines, then when I emailed to ask why they said it was a mistake and reinstated it!

Me, a public health person, just sitting over here reflecting on the fact that the US has experienced a 7% increase in infant mortality post-Dobbs.

Anti Islam, has been global governmental policy for 2 decades. If he were of the Jewish faith and received this level of criticism, many would be forced to leave their jobs, livelihoods destroyed and reputations in tatters.

Yet another article of this sort, this time from The Times asking if ‘pumping money’ into the NHS is good value. Perhaps these media outlets should start asking if the private management consultants are good value, or pushing to end PFI debt. Doubt they will though 🚨

We keep pumping money into the NHS. Is it good value?
Critics complain that our health service is bloated and inefficient — but the diagnosis is complex, and how does it compare with other countries?

I seem to have upset the Nigel Farage fan club - so let me be clear.

This man sows hate, lies and division.

He is a grifter and a conman.

He does not represent the vast majority of Britons.

Repost if you agree

P.s. multiculturalism is great.

If you can't afford to pay your Private School VAT fee's then your child can go to a State School, like 94% of people.

And 100% of people in Finland, the country with the best education in the world.

I'm so tired of him. I'm tired of people pretending he's not an idiot. I'm tired of immorality and cruelty. I'm tired of his inability to say anything kind or intelligent. I'm tired of his drama and chaos. I'm tired of his face. I'm tired of his voice

It's going to be a long 4 years.
